How many people complaining about kneeling have a confederate flag in their house? Unreal.
President Trump tells NFL owners something.

#352Wrong again... New technology has allowed for break-even pricing at $40-50 a barrel to give a wide range... it used to be $60-70 years ago, still lower than $75.... oil IMO is headed to that $60-70 range eventually, which means we will be doing just fine... Saudi/Russia can't survive with these prices especially when it was what $35-45 not too long ago... It's all by design... It will bounce back eventually. Will it ever go over $100 anytime soon, that's a whole other ballgame.Comment -

#356Have you checked season ticket prices for the NFL/NBA? Do you really think people are going to pay big money to see some smoe from college? Go check out the stadiums when we had scabs. We had more people at HS games. The owners haven't forgotten how much money they lost the last time they tried that. It almost killed the NFL. It certainly killed baseball for many years.

It's almost like you think anyone can do their job just as if anyone can flip burgers. One guy makes $6/hour, the other $6,000,000/year
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you're incorrect, a person making $6,000,000/year cannot be easily replaced, or he would have already been.
Don't know about you but I would like to make that money. Maybe I should go replace himComment -

#360Canadians are much more level headed as we are. You are able to admit when you are wrong and will at least listen. Canadians are some of the brightest people I've met and certainly the most talented. Canadians treat people with respect and genuinely look out for their fellow man. You don't see this issue in Canada because the simple answer is. "What are you protesting? and how can we help". Too many Americans are too quick to take sides.

#361I said they could be replaced I didnt say they could perform up to all star levels. As matter of fact some of the guys that replaced the nfl players when they striked in the 80s they got to stay on the team as starters even after the players cameback from the strike.Comment -

My comment to them is that NONE of these guys are kneeling to disrespect the flag or our country. That makes no sense. They don't kneel to dishonor men and women who died in the name of freedom. They don't kneel to say fukk you USA. Colin Kaepernick probably loves this country as much if not more than anyone else. He's kneeling for a cause that has nothing to do with the flag or the anthem. Just because you and I may not believe in his cause or the way he chooses to display it is no reason to belittle him or say that his cause is of no value. Most people don't even know what he's been protesting. They keep saying, "what is he protesting" or "he doesn't know what he's protesting". They haven't taken the time to find out what he's protesting but formed an opinion that he must be a bad guy?
This country was built on protest. We've had protests on every campus, government building, city hall in this country. It is how we address life. When I was in college, there was a different protest on campus every week. I thought most of them were ridiculous but far be it from me to think that I was better than them or that they didn't have the right to believe in what they believed in. I'm not a fan of PETA. But I'm not going to call someone un American or dummy because they believe in a cause. Good for them. Beats the millions of sheep that can't think for themselves.Comment -

#364Do you know what the average career span of a NFL player is ? According to the NFL Players Association the average career length is about 3.3 years. The NFL claims that the average career is about 6 years (for players who make a club's opening day roster in their rookie season). Players with at least one Pro Bowl appearance usually have the longest career of all NFL players. I would guess within every 2 years at least 50% of all starting line up players on every NFL team has changed. If you play basketball or baseball you can have long career if your good enough. You honestly dont think the owners would put in a subpar player to try to stop losing money? The NFL has an obligation to the tv contract deals they made or else they would get sued by the networks and advertisers. Im talking billions of dollars. So yes the owners would put subpar players out on the field to protect their financial interest.Comment -

#365I really hate the 2 party system. Because people then feel they have to take sides. I think there's enough people in the middle and technology is such that we could move both parties the way we want them to move and get rid of the people that don't believe in compromise/working together.
Yes, this country is divided but it only takes a little effort from everyone. Imagine if Trump would have met with Kaepernick before this blew up. What if he would meet with North Korea's Kim? People all want the same things. It is not that difficult.
My mentor told me that there was 2 things I needed to remember to say in business and life.
1 - What can I do for you? What do you need?
2 - What can you do for me? Here's what I need.
If you are selling something, trying to negotiate a deal, trying to mend an argument with your girlfriend, etc. It's all about finding out what people want? and what they're willing to do. Remember we all want the same thing.Comment -

#367The constitution allows protest. Not Obama/Trump. What's wrong with protest? What's wrong with finding out what people want and seeing if you can do something to help? How do we foster change if we don't protest?

Going to city hall.... in front of city counsel... is totally different. I don't even consider that protesting. If you have an issue about a new fee on your taxes... you attend the meetings... that's your choice. But, you aren't blocking streets.... and getting in front of people... stopping cars... and acting like an a$$hole??? Are you?Comment -

My point is that Americans are always protesting about something. And people are always mad about something. Let them protest, it's a free country. Why are we making a big deal about nothing? People always sweat the small stuff. People in church complain when someone doesn't stand when they sing, or kneel when they pray. Who cares? Jesus basically said that most of the time, the folks standing are the ones that are most likely hypocrites "Look at me". There is no law that says we MUST stand for the anthem? If I don't feel like standing, I'm not standing. Too many damn anthems to begin with. Why the hell do we sing the anthem before games anyway? Stupid ritual.Comment -

#378This is clearly a black and white issue
Again, 99% of white nationalists online complaining never served in the military to serve their country, yet they complain when a player kneels during the anthem
All you pussies do is whine online, would never actually do anything hard in life
Which reminds me of a documentary I recently saw that revealed most white southerners identified as very hard working, even though over 50% were unemployed. Almost 85% identified as Christian but church attendance in those areas were very low. There were some other amazing metrics that showed how those people identify in life isn't anywhere near the reality in which they live their life. Same thing here, go serve and then let's talk.Comment -
